When you buy an mp3 player for your child, chances are he or she listens to music with the earbuds that came free with the player. The danger is that children crank up the volume to a level that can cause progressive and permanent damage to their hearing. According to the Scientific Committee on Emerging and Newly Identified Health Risks, "Regularly listening to personal music players at high-volume settings when young often has no immediate effect on hearing but is likely to result in hearing loss later in life." As parents we can hear when the TV volume is too high. But we can't hear the volume being pumped through our children's earbuds. Which is why these iHearSafe earbuds are such a great idea. Whether your child is plugged into an mp3 player, computer, video player or even a cell phone, these earbuds limit the volume to 80 dB or less. So whatever they are listing to, the volume will never be high enough to cause damage to their hearing. The Deal: Get iHearSafe Earbuds for your children, or for yourself, at Amazon for just $19.99. |
